Kenny and girls, I am so saddened by the passing of your father. He was the nicest guy you would want to meet and the best mechanic around. He definitely passed that talent on to his son. I will miss seeing him at the garage and at the corner store. A true gentleman in every respect. My sincere condolences, Larry Reed
